This paper examines the impact of financial integration on economic growth in Southeast Asia over the period 1993-2013. This paper further investigates whether the relationship depends on the level of financial and economic development, government corruption, and macroeconomic policy. These questions raise important issues both from a theoretical and a policy perspective. We employ the generalized methods of moment (GMM) in the dynamic panel estimation framework to analyse several factors, including initial income, initial schooling, financial development, inflation, trade openness, corruption, and financial crisis. The study further analyzes the data using the EGLS model to examine the consistency of the GMM model. We found that financial integration has a significant positive effect on economic growth in Southeast Asia. Our findings suggest that increasing financial integration could improve the productive capacity of the economy, including more investments and efficient allocation of capital, and thus enhancing economic growth in this region. More specifically, the results suggest that the government should work towards eliminating corruption and stabilizing macroeconomics in order to enhance financial integration and economic growth. This paper sheds new insights on a better evaluation of the past and present theorizing on the subject of financial integration and economic growth; especially, in Southeast Asia.

The main objective of this study was to investigate how people prepare for old age by looking at financial statements from single-person households in Gyeonggi province; the policy implications regarding low fertility and population aging are considered. The subjects were members of 600 households who were aged 26 to 44 years old and not married. The data were analyzed by t-test, ANOVA, and dichotomous logistic regression using SPSS WIN 12.0. Respondents pointed out that financial problems are the greatest challenges for those facing old age in single-person households; they said that a stable job is the most important factor for secure living. About 57% of household residents responded that they have prepared for retirement, and a majority of them said they hoped to spend their elderly years with a marriage partner. The financial statements from single-person households were inferior to those from other types of households. The assets of single-person household members were less than those of other households. Only 10.5% of respondents have owned homes. The study discusses policy implications for those who want marriage and for those who don't want it. For those who want marriage, job-seeking support was proposed, and for the others, tax deductions and family programs for single-person households were proposed.

The price of the hospitals' services is regulated by the governmental health insurance reimbursement schedule in Korea. On the other hand, the emphasis on the quality of care of hospitals service is ever increasing. Under the environment, hospitals have to understand the effects of the activities to improve quality of care on efficiency and on financial performance so that they develop a management strategy that allows quality of care, operational efficiency, and financial achievement simultaneously. This study investigates the relationship among the concepts. The sample for the study includes 23 hospitals that have more than 300 beds. The concept of quality of care is measured by the score reported by the Hospital Standardization Survey (HSS) instituted by Korean Hospital Association. Efficiency is measured by the ratio of number of employee to the number of patients served. Financial performance is measured by the financial ratios indicating the profitability of a hospital. An analysis is performed using the multiple regression. The results show significant positive relationships between the HSS score and efficiency indicators, md between the HSS score and profit measures. However, the significant positive relationship between the HSS score and profit measures disappeared when efficiency indicators were introduced to the model. This study concludes that the structural quality of a hospital has a positive effect on efficiency of the hospital and that the structural qualify indirectly affects the financial performance of a hospital through the improvement of efficiency. Based on the findings, the implications on hospital management and health policy are discussed.

This study seeks to ascertain whether publicly listed Jordanian corporations (listed on the Amman Stock Exchange (ASE)) exhibit accounting conservatism and whether such companies distribute dividends to stockholders. Furthermore, this study delves into the implications of accounting conservatism on dividend policy in the context of the quality of financial statements of publicly listed Jordanian companies listed on the ASE. To accomplish the aims of this study, the Quality of financial reporting is treated as a moderator for the relationship between accounting conservatism and dividend distribution. Hence, a panel data approach was utilized, which encompasses cross-sectional data for 95 industrial and service establishments for the period (2013-2017). The study found that accounting conservatism has a negative impact on dividends and that there is no difference in the impact of accounting conservatism on dividends based on the quality of financial reports. The study concluded with a number of recommendations, the most salient of which is the need for companies to enhance their concentration on accounting conservatism and adopt a suitable policy for dividends. Thus, this research provides an insights into the financial practices of Jordanian publicly listed corporations and highlights the need for a more informed decision-making process concerning dividends and accounting practices.

최근 금융산업의 글로벌 트렌드인 오픈뱅킹(Open Banking)이 향후 금융시장 내 다양한 혁신을 일으키는 원동력이 되고 금융업의 분화와 재결합을 촉발하기 위해서는 올바른 정책방향과 세부 과제의 추진이 중요하다. 본 연구는 오픈뱅킹의 등장배경, 국내외 동향 그리고 한국의 오픈뱅킹 정책을 조사·분석하고, 오픈뱅킹 제도의 성공적인 안착과 활성화를 위한 정책방향과 추진과제를 제언하고자 한다. 오픈뱅킹은 고객의 명시적 동의를 전제로 제3자(TPP: Third Party Provider)에게 은행 계좌 등에 대한 접근을 허용하고 지급결제(Payment) 기능을 개방하는 정책이다. 오픈뱅킹 시대 개막은 은행과 핀테크 기업 간의 경쟁과 협력이 본격적으로 시작되는 계기가 되어 금융산업의 경쟁력을 높이고 금융소비자의 효용 증대에 기여할 것으로 기대된다. 이를 위해 정책당국은 개방형 금융결제 인프라 의 고도화, 오픈뱅킹 법적 근거 마련과 함께 고객 데이터 유출, 금융시스템 안정성 저하 등의 부작용을 최소화하는데 만전을 기해야 한다. 은행과 핀테크 기업은 흩어져 있는 고객 금융정보를 하나의 플랫폼으로 단순 집중하여 상품 또는 서비스를 추천하는 금융서비스의 표면적 결합을 넘어 진정한 금융서비스의 융합과 차별로 발전시켜야 할 것이다.

This paper is focused on the sustainability of public rental housing policy. We have analyzed the general fiscal conditions of central government, the public welfare fiscal conditions, the public expenditure on rental housing, and the Korea Land & Housing Corporation (LH) financial structure. Central government fiscal conditions is controlled by the midium-term fiscal operation plan(2010~2014) and fiscal rules. And the fiscal mandatory expenditures on welfare is increased rapidly by the expansion of beneficiaries, but the fiscal discretionary expenditures particularly on public rental housing can be gradually cut down. LH, the dominant agency responsible for affordable housing, is now confronted with financial distress accruing to excessive burden for public rental housing construction. As a result this paper, we find the discrepancy between the fiscal conditons and public rental housing policies. We suggest the fiscally sustainable rental housing policy. Firstly, the construction plan should be realized reflecting the market and fiscal conditions. Secondly, the provsion and financing system of rental housing should be rebuild within the government fiscal condtions and financial ability of LH.

This paper analyzed factors for employees to violate information security policy in financial companies based on the theory of reasoned action (TRA), general deterrence theory (GDT), and information security awareness and moderating effects of perceived sensitivity of customer information. Using the 376 samples that were collected through both online and offline surveys, statistical tests were performed. We found that the perceived severity of sanction and information security policy support to information policy violation attitude and subjective norm but the perceived certainty of sanction and general information security awareness support to only subjective norm. Also, the moderating effects of perceived sensitivity of customer information against information policy violation attitude and subjective norm were supported. Academic implications of this study are expected to be the basis for future research on information security policy violations of financial companies; Employees' perceived sanctions and information security policy awareness have an impact on the subjective norm significantly. Practical implications are that it can provide a guide to establish information security management strategies for information security compliance; when implementing information security awareness training for employees to deter violations by emphasizing the sensitivity of customer information, a company should make their employees recognize that the customer information is very sensitive data.

정부는 2019년 1월 금융 분야의 클라우드 이용 활성화를 위해 전자금융감독규정을 개정하였다. 하지만 클라우드 정책 및 규제들이 금융회사들의 자율적인 보안활동을 저해하거나 국민의 기본권을 일부 제한할 수 있어 금융권에서는 중요정보를 클라우드로 이용하려는 움직임이 거의 나타나지 않고 있다. 또한, 중요정보는 국내에만 두도록 하는 데이터 국지화 정책은 클라우드 이용 활성화를 가로막는 대표적인 규제이며, 이는 해외 사업자에 대한 차별문제도 야기시킨다. 따라서 데이터를 통해 디지털 금융혁신 기반을 제공할 클라우드를 활성화하기 위한 정책 및 규제 개선이 필요하다. 본 연구는 국내외 금융회사에 대한 클라우드 정책현황을 알아보고 국내 금융회사에 대한 정책 및 규제들을 분석하였다. 이를 통해 국내 금융회사에 대한 클라우드 정책의 한계와 문제점을 도출하고 금융회사의 클라우드 이용 활성화를 위한 데이터 국지화 규제 개선방안 등 정책적 대안을 제시하고자 한다.
